They would need to restrict capabilities, not just cut off access to "military-style" gear. They make the same mistake with gun laws where they ban "military-style" weapons because they look scary, but allow weapons that are just as deadly because they have a wooden stock and don't look as scary as "military-style" weapons.

Yes, but it's a start. MRAPs are expensive; a lot of departments that have them likely couldn't afford one if they weren't handed out for free.
